> [@JDMR2](#): > > vanek is god > > he would own ovechkin if he got 10 shots a game…and if he skated like he should… I dunno about that man, Ovechkin is a better overall player. He does everything. His stats are twice what Vanek has and hes on an awful team. Vanek could be better then his stats show, but its a far strech to say hes better then Ovechkin. vanek= :pimp: though ---

Just a heads up for tomorrows game, it starts at 2pm. And I will say that vanek is good, but NOT minus an o. He has picked it up a lot since the beginning of the season, but I have to say afinogenov is where its at. His stick handling and skating is more comparable to ovechkins. I think next year will be vaneks year. ---

I think Ovechkin is very good as well. It will be interesting to compare them in 3 or 4 years. ---

> [@Fetter](#): > > I think Ovechkin is very good as well. It will be interesting to compare them in 3 or 4 years. i doubt there will be any close comparisons between the two players in 3 to 4 years. vanek will probably be like a chris drury type player. ---

I seriously don’t understand how you guys can put vanek above ovechkin :gotme: I mean i like Vanek a lot and go sabres (woot!), but right now, it’s not even elose. comparing Vanek to crosby seems like a closer comparison. I agree with jay and think that Ovechkin is the next superstar. > [@Poose22](#): > > i doubt there will be any close comparisons between the two players in 3 to 4 years. vanek will probably be like a chris drury type player. I think vanek will be more of a miroslav Satan type of player, but playing at his potential. Vanek kinda floats around like Satan did. Ovechkin skates his ass off like Max…but better ---
